Was it a perk of owning the club? If they were paying I don’t imagine we are like getting triple the amount nor or anything from the new company.. unless we have found a way for King power to sponsor something else which would be totally legit and above board so that we get both sponsorship incomes.. King Power was a reported £4m per season compared to the rumoured £30m per season from our new sponsors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peach0000 Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 From how I understand how it worked with king power was that they paid well over the odds when we were in the championship and when rules weren’t that tight regarding that particular loop hole. As the clubs stature has increased and other revenue streams have increased they have continued paying the same amount as they did when we were in the championship. This new sponsorship is huge as we are finally getting the income a club of our stature can command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could also provide a base for KP to come in again in 3 years to inflate the sponsorship money they can put in again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember they strengthened ffp rules a few years back after a few teams had inflated sponsorships. I believe KP preceded the rule change and that’s why they never got in trouble. I wouldn’t be surprised if KP just didn’t consider the sponsorship worth as much to them as it would cost at market rate anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox in the North Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 Raphinha opted to leave Rennes with Champions League football for dirty Leeds so there’s a small possibility we could convince Gosens. That being said he is such a quality player so I would expect him to have many suitors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARM1968 Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 Barca and Real are so debt ridden it’s untrue. I can’t imagine them going under, but they’ll have to start being a little more sensible at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfc sheff Posted 14 June 2021 Share Posted 14 June 2021 https://www.gazzetta.it/Calciomercato “GOSENS COURTED BY LEICESTER - Robin Gosens could be Atalanta's sacrifice in this summer transfer market.

Sly Posted 14 June 2021 Share Posted 14 June 2021 We’re quite a way out in valuation. I’d have though €35m was a tad light, never mind €20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc_forever Posted 14 June 2021 Share Posted 14 June 2021 (edited) I read that we tried to buy both Gosens and Castagne the previous summer, offering the same fee for the former as the latter. Looks like our valuation of Gosens hasn't budged particularly. One positive if the rumour is true is that it looks like he would be open to a move to us, as unlikely we would be pursuing it if that wasn't the case.
